It took almost a month to create the mural on the side of the Japanese Miyako Hotel in LA's Little Tokyo and artist Robert Vargas said it represents the cultural bridge between Japan and the 'City of Angels'. "Obviously he's great at baseball," said Suzuki, whose mother named him after the former Seattle Mariners All-Star outfielder.
